Call for Papers


Fifth International Workshop on Parallel Processing by Cellular Automata and
 Arrays

Berlin, G.D.R
September 17 - 21,  1990

Central Institute for Cybernetics and Information Processes
Academy of Sciences of the G.D.R, National IFIP Council of the G.D.R
in Cooperation with Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Cellware Ltd (Budapest)

The Parcella Workshop series is the first and, until now, the only series in the
 field  of Parallel Processing in the socialist countries of central and Eastern
 Europe and the first one on Massive Parallelism in Europe.  As in the foregoing
 meetings Parcella 90 will present the landscape of research in these countries
 and will be a meeting place with scientists from West Europe as well as
 overseas.  The organizers consider Berlin to be an excellent place for
 initializing an international exchange of ideas and for cooperation.
